Answer:

3x-9=2x+4

-2x -2x

x - 9 = 4

+ 9 +9

First isolate the variable into one side.

Then simplify like terms.

Hope this helps.

Farmer tom has chickens and sheep he counts 48 heads and 134 legs how many sheep does he have

just olya [345]

Because each chicken has 2 legs you divide 134 by 2 which is 67 then 24 which basically means he has 36 sheep in total. Hope this helped

40. In a statistics class of 30 students, there were 13 men and 17 women. Two of the men and three of the women received an A in

Harrizon [31]

Answer:

a) 56.67% probability that the student is a woman

b) 16.67% probability that the student received an A

c) 63.33% probability that the student is a woman or received an A.

d) 83.33% probability that the student did not receive an A.

Step-by-step explanation:

A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

We have that:

30 students

13 men

17 women

2 men that got an A and 11 men that did not get an A.

3 women that got an A and 14 women that did not get an A.

a. Find the probability that the student is a woman.

30 students, of which 17 are women.

$P = \frac{17}{30} = 0.5667$

56.67% probability that the student is a woman

b. Find the probability that the student received an A.

30 students, of which 5 received an A

$P = \frac{5}{30} = 0.1667$

16.67% probability that the student received an A

c. Find the probability that the student is a woman or received an A.

30 students, of which 17 are women and 2 are men who received an A. So

$P = \frac{19}{30} = 0.6333$

63.33% probability that the student is a woman or received an A.

d. Find the probability that the student did not receive an A.

30 students, of which 25 did not receive an A.

$P = \frac{25}{30} = 0.8333$

83.33% probability that the student did not receive an A.

SHOW ALL WORK BUT KEE IT SIMPLE AND EASY TO UNDERSTAND:)

To do this problem, you need to use a process called completing the square. Let me explain:

To complete the square on the function f(x) = x² + 8x +13, first group the first two terms in ( ) and leave some space at the end as follows:
f(x) = (x² + 8x ) + 13 Now our next step is to fill in the space and adjust our expression on the right hand side of the function. To do this, we take half of the middle number 8 and then square it: so 4² = 16 and we fill in our space inside the ( ) with this value 16;
f(x) = (x² + 8x + 16) + 13 now what we have done is to increase the overall value of our expression on the right by 16, but we want the overall value to remain the same. To fix this we simply need to subtract 16 at the end like this: f(x) = (x² + 8x + 16) + 13 -16 we can simplify and get the following.
f(x) = (x² + 8x + 16) - 3 At this point we're almost done.. All we need to do now is to rewrite the what is in the parentheses in a slightly different form. Here is what it will look like: f(x) = (x + 4)² - 3 notice all I did was take the sum of the square root of x² and the square root of 16 originally in the ( ) to get then new expression inside the ( ) and then square that ( )²

Now this is a nice form to have because you can get the vertex straight from this form.. IN FACT this is called vertex form or (h,k) form for short. In general the form is f(x) = a(x - h)² + k don't worry about the 'a' for now.. you might see that in our case it is just 1 and will not effect our equation. You only have to consider this if the original leading coefficient of the quadratic is not 1 to begin with...

So you can see that our vertex is (-4,-3)
Hope this is helpful, but if you have questions let me know.
